Lovely as usual..
The only cricket I am hearing is the Stanford 20-20....
Hope your visit home left you with lots of memories to take you through your stay in Iraq...

Steve, your haikus are always so powerful. I don't know if it's the words, or
the sentiment, or the fact that you've made your readers privy to certain
circumstances or all three together. Regardless of reason, your work
moves through the heart with directed emotion. This seems more sad to
me than it first appears ...
Take care of you and come back SOON!
~ Breezy
